Found a Bargain? Do Tell.

[mikeIow]

i will admit I don't need any more jerseys

Have to say I had to stop myself buying it "because bargain" - I also have more than I need for the year or two ahead!
Nice shirts though - pretty sure I got one a year ago on a similar deal!

Yeah, I got sucked in and, beside two jerseys, got a cassette brush, and some pedals. Though the latter items were not hugely marked down, they were items I was going to buy anyway so I think it was justifiable.

Going to be two or three months before I can try out the short sleeved jerseys of course but surely better than my Halfords ridge ones I got for a fiver in their sale a couple of years ago🤣 they have been alright so very high hopes for a 90 quid jersey (are they really that price normally?)

Interesting.
I’ve had brilliant experience with Schwalbe Marathan Plus tyres on my hybrid…but they are now almost 4 years old, and perhaps 4K miles in.
Zero punctures: almost scared I’ll have forgotten how to change them…

Think mine are 700 x 36. Wonder if those Pirelli’s might make a good replacement 🧐

No brainer. Pirelli is a reputable make. I bought 3 (2 for son's commuter bike and one for a 'spare').
Edit: See 'on receipt' mini-review in post below.

Pearl Izumi Tempo Jersey for £10

Bought two of them, hope they fit. Now I can get rid of two I bought years ago which are really too big, but I thought were the right size at the time. Were they ever sold at £90 each??

I also got sucked in to buying more than I wanted to avoid delivery charges, I bought that jersey in teal, really nice quality, small fitting though. Not sure about the £90 rrp though

Small fitting you say. I thought they were supposed to be 'relaxed'. I ordered the large size, am 34-36 inch waist, 5ft 10, 87kgs. Hope it fits.

Checked…mine are 35s, so these would be slightly chunkier.
Might have a closer look….2mm might not sound much, but it would be that bit closer to the already close mudguards, and potentially a little more rolling resistance. Does look a fairly “road” tread on the main part, mind you.
No idea how they would compare for puncture resistance. Not many reviews about.

I’m pleased to report that my shoes have just arrived.

As did mine yesterday! Good wee deal that, worth waiting on. Choice of two laces too

£5 for this (I bought one before Christmas) - review: it fits my head, has straps and after a while I forget it's there.
